益生菌在幽门螺杆菌根除治疗中的应用

幽门螺杆菌(Helicobacter pylori,H.pylori)是导致活动性胃炎、消化性溃疡、胃癌、胃黏膜相关淋巴组织淋巴瘤等消化系统疾病的重要病因之一,已被世界卫生组织确认为Ⅰ类致癌因子,根除H.pylori对防治上述疾病有重要意义。目前临床上主要采用含抗生素的三联或四联药物进行H.pylori的根除,虽然取得一定的疗效,但随着抗生素耐药率逐年增加,根除率持续下降,限制了其广泛应用。此外,初次或多次治疗失败后再治疗可选择的药物很少。近年来人们开始尝试将益生菌应用在H.pylori根除治疗中,并取得一定疗效。本文就益生菌在辅助根除幽门螺杆菌方面的研究进展作一简单综述。

Gastric MALT lymphoma and Helicobacter pylori.

Primary gastric low-grade B-cell lymphomas are neoplastic mimics of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) as exemplified by Peyer''s patches in the terminal ileum. Architectural and immunophenotypic properties of the neoplastic cells suggest that they originate from MALT-derived marginal zone B-cells. Paradoxically, the normal human stomach is devoid of organized MALT within which a lymphoma can develop. Lymphoid tissue is acquired in the stomach in response to antigenic stimulation, predominantly associated with Helicobacter pylori infection. Studies of patients with low-grade MALT lymphoma have confirmed a high incidence of H. pylori infection and suggest that the infection predates neoplastic transformation. Certain morphological features of MALT lymphomas suggest that the tumor cells remain responsive to antigen drive. Given the close association between gastric MALT lymphoma and H. pylori, it is possible that this organism provides such a drive. In vitro studies have shown that the tumor cells proliferate in a T-cell-dependent way to the presence of H. pylori. Several studies have now demonstrated that eradication of the organism in patients with low-grade gastric MALT lymphoma can result in regression of the tumor. In cases with a high-grade component, the associated low-grade part may regress, but most high-grade gastric MALT lymphomas are unresponsive to this conservative therapy.     

Inflammation, Immunity, and Vaccines for Helicobacter pylori

Helicobacter pylori infects almost half of the population worldwide and represents the major cause of gastroduodenal diseases, such as duodenal and gastric ulcer, gastric adenocarcinoma, autoimmune gastritis, and B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue. Helicobacter pylori induces the activation of a complex and fascinating cytokine and chemokine network in the gastric mucosa. Different bacterial and environmental factors, other concomitant infections, and host genetics may influence the balance between mucosal tolerance and inflammation in the course of H. pylori infection. An inverse association between H. pylori prevalence and the frequencies of asthma and allergies was demonstrated, and the neutrophil activating protein of H. pylori was shown to inhibit the allergic inflammation of bronchial asthma. During the last year, significant progress was made on the road to the first efficient vaccine for H. pylori that will represent a novel and very important bullet against both infection and gastric cancer.     

Expression cloning of cholesterol alpha-glucosyltransferase, a unique enzyme that can be inhibited by natural antibiotic gastric mucin O-glycans, from Helicobacter pylori

Helicobacter pylori infects over half the world's population, but only 3% of those infected develop peptic ulcer, gastric cancer, and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. In H. pylori, alpha-glucosyl cholesterol constitutes more than 25% of cell wall lipids, and it has been suggested that alpha-glucosyl cholesterol is essential for H. pylori viability. Here, we identified cholesterol alpha-glucosyltransferase (CHLalphaGcT) using an expression cloning strategy and showed that this enzyme is distinctively inhibited by mucin-type O-glycans similar to those present in deeper portions of the gastric mucosa. Moreover, inactivation of CHLalphaGcT by homologous recombination led to H. pylori lethality. These results indicate that H. pylori CHLalphaGcT is a unique enzyme targeted by a natural antibiotic mucin and constitutes an excellent therapeutic target to prevent H. pylori-induced peptic ulcer, gastric carcinoma, and MALT lymphoma.     

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) molecular signature in conjunctival mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma

Conjunctival mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is an extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma that is characterized by an exaggerated clonal expansion of B cells, which implicate a pathological proliferative response to antigen(s) including bacteria. Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is recognized as one of the causative agents of gastric MALT lymphoma; however, it has not been reported in extra gastric MALT lymphoma. We studied 5 patients (4 adults and 1 child) with salmon-colored conjunctival lesions. One patient also had a history of abnormal bone marrow biopsy a year earlier with lymphoid aggregates involving 5% of the overall bone marrow. The conjunctival lesions of the 5 patients were biopsied. Histopathological diagnoses were consistent with conjunctival MALT lymphoma. Lymphoma and normal conjunctival cells were microdissected using laser capture microscopy or manual techniques. DNA was extracted and subjected to PCR amplification using H. pylori gene-specific primers from the urease B and vac/m2 gene. Cells from chronic conjunctivitis (normal lymphocytes), conjunctival human T-cell lymphotropic virus type-1/adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (HTLV-1/ATL), and orbital B-cell lymphoma were also microdissected, processed and analyzed. PCR amplification and Southern blot hybridization demonstrated H. pylori DNA in the conjunctival MALT lymphoma cells of 4/5 cases. The negative case was the one with a history of abnormal bone marrow. In contrast, H. pylori gene was not detected in normal conjunctival cells from the cases of MALT lymphoma or the lymphocytes, ATL and orbital B-lymphoma cells from the controls. These data suggest that H. pylori may play a role in conjunctival MALT lymphoma.     

Interaction of Helicobacter pylori with professional phagocytes: role of the cag pathogenicity island and translocation, phosphorylation and processing of CagA

Chronic infection of the human gastric mucosa with Helicobacter pylori is a major cause of gastroduodenal pathologies, including peptic ulcerations, mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma and adenocarcinoma. Helicobacter pylori strains carrying the cag pathogenicity island, which encodes an active type IV protein secretion system ( cag ⁺ or type I strains), are preferentially associated with strong gastric inflammation and severe disease. We show here that cag ⁺ H. pylori strains use the type IV secretion system to inject the bacterial protein CagA into various types of professional phagocytes, including human polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMNs) and the human and murine macrophage cell lines THP-1 and J774A.1 CagA is rapidly tyrosine phosphorylated and proteolytically processed to generate a stable 35–45 kDa C-terminally tyrosine-phosphorylated protein fragment. H. pylori was efficiently ingested by the different types of phagocytic cells. A chromosomal deletion of the complete pathogenicity island had no significant effect on the rate of ingestion. Furthermore, the survival rate of H. pylori in the phagosome was unchanged between the wild type and a deletion mutant lacking the type IV secretion system. Thus, the type IV secretion system seems to be involved neither in active phagocytosis resistance nor in prolonged survival of the bacteria in phagocytic cells.     

Immunoproteomics of Helicobacter pylori--strategy for improvement of diagnostic tests and vaccine development

Helicobacter pylori, Gram-negative spiral-shaped bacteria, member of epsilon-Proteobacteria, colonizes the gastric mucosa of humans. H. pylori has been identified as the causative agent of chronic inflammation, chronic gastritis and peptic ulceration and is considered a risk factor for the development of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma and adenocarcinoma of the stomach. Although more than 50% of human population is infected with H. pylori only a subset develops disease. The completion of two H. pylori genome sequences revealed the enormous strain heterogeneity and permitted comparative proteome analysis. Immunoproteomics, a novel strategy combining standard proteomics with immunological screening, is currently method of choice for identification of new antigens of diagnostic and protective values. Highly specific antigens will be used as biomarkers of different pathology induced by H. pylori infection whereas novel highly immunogenic, conserved, abundant and surface-located proteins will facilitate efficient anti-Helicobacter vaccine construction.     

Influence of polymorphisms in the NOD1/CARD4 and NOD2/CARD15 genes on the clinical outcome of Helicobacter pylori infection

Host immune response influences the clinical outcome of Helicobacter pylori infection leading to ulcer disease, gastric carcinoma and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. A genetic risk profile for gastric cancer has been identified, but genetic susceptibility to develop MALT lymphoma is still unclear. We investigated the role of NOD1 and NOD2 as intracellular recognition molecules for pathogen-associated molecules in H. pylori infection in vitro and analysed the influence of single nucleotide polymorphisms on susceptibility to ulcer disease and MALT lymphoma. Expression of NOD1 and NOD2 significantly sensitized HEK293 cells to H. pylori-induced NF-kappaB activation in a cag pathogenicity island (cagPAI)-dependent manner. In cells carrying the Crohn-associated NOD2 variant R702W the NF-kappaB response was significantly diminished. NOD1/NOD2 expression levels were induced in the gastric epithelium in H. pylori-positive patients. No mutations were found to be associated with gastritis or gastric ulcer development. However, the R702W mutation in the NOD2/CARD15 gene was significantly associated with gastric lymphoma. Carrier of the rare allele T had a more than doubled risk to develop lymphoma than controls [odds ratio (OR): 2.4, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.2-4.6; P < 0.044]. H. pylori-induced upregulation of NOD1 and NOD2 in vivo may play a critical role in the recognition of this common pathogen. A missense mutation in the leucine-rich region of CARD15 is associated with gastric lymphoma.
